摘要:
The present invention relates to an immunoassay for simultaneously measuring the presence of antibodies to a plurlity of HPV types that utilizes particle-based flow cytometric analysis. The presence and/or titre of neutralizing antibodies in a test sample are determined in a competitive format, where known, type-specific, fluorescently labeled neutralizing monoclonal antibodies compete with antibodies within a test sample for binding to conformationally sensitive, neutralizing epitopes on specific HPV-VLPs. The invention also provides a microsphere complex comprising a microsphere coupled to an HPV VLP.
摘要:
The present invention relates generally to novel processes for covalently conjugating polysaccharides to microspheres or other biomolecules, and more specifically to the use of 4-(4,6-dimethoxy[1,3,5]triazin-2-yl)-4-methyl-morpholinium chloride (DMTMM) in said processes
